Autumn Yawns

Autumn yawns – early darkness stunts her days
Eventide wrapped in golden umber tones
Bands of autumn hues swaddle mellow haze
Sunset sundrops sweet serenades intone.

Twilight dozes ‘neath the harvest’s birthstone
Autumn savors new frost in early dusk
Scarlet scents,  aphrodisiac cologne,
Festoon icy crystals - autumnal musk.

Vesper rondeaus...

Premium Member The Ghost of One Who Yawns Addresses Yale
You would not have dared look into my face
When it wore flesh and scowled
Upon the world your people forced on me, 
You sons of Mammon,
You children of Ivied Privilege.

I was Terror to the Mexican,
The name their tongue gave me
Became a word for courage in your...

Princess Zoe Yawns-A-Lot
Princess Zoe Yawns-A-Lot
In Mommy's arms though you are not
In my heart you'll always be
Until you can come home with me

Slumbering soundly you softly snore
Dreaming dreams of sleepy lore
All goofy smiles and half closed eyes
My Baby Lady, My sweet surprise

My perfect angel Heaven sent to me
Zoe...

The Gargoyle Yawns
The Gargoyle Yawns

The Fogwalker searches for clues  in the  moist darkness of early morning. The mist feels it's way through empty alleys and vacant lots. 
Cautious footsteps crackle from the gravel pathway lined with broken glass and dry leaves, evidence the Autumn Equinox...

YAWNS 

Yonder valley of stone
Yellow yawns wonder

Seemingly yelling
In open mouth drawls

Rain or streams
I do not know

Blowing nose, dabbing eyes
Taking warm sips of tarpit

Toothpick splinters barely hold
Open misty window shades

Eventually snapping shut
Locked like crocodile jaws

The clock strikes twelve
  my keyboard yawns
Pleads for me to tuck him in

  I say "One more poem"
    He says, "You win"...

Yawns the Dawn
cold blanket warms
my benumbed
feet.

tired aluminum moon
has long gone
to bed.

drowsy dawn yawns
behind hilly
silhouettes.

languid breeze is a spider's
web touching
my nape.

smiling, I start dreaming
it is, once again,
morning !...

Premium Member When Morning Yawns
A whirlwind of thoughts stir up silence
 As  uneven depths of despair
 Paint bright yesterdays and pale tomorrows
 A night filled with wandering addicts,
 Their eyes speckled with the gloom of gray

Dreams colliding with reality
 On fluffy clouds where they trip out
 Love is...

The day yawns
stretches...
like a flower
petals upturned
ghostlike vapors
drift away
Bullfrogs croak
My dog slumbers...

Premium Member love yawns at dawn
Immersed in dreams deep,
some fairies oversleep,
atop fragrant sunflowers
and then they shape shift,
sharing love’s gift;
divine bliss shower that empowers....

Premium Member Laughing Buddha Yawns
Laughing Buddha yawns, on earth born
He knows life but a dream
Unruffled by both praise and scorn
Flowing in the bliss stream

Laughs at life and at death
Touch divine, is his wealth
Living thus, breath by breath

He’s the light that dawns
Laughing Buddha yawns
